What happens if instead of salt water you use distilled water in the red onion experiment?

If distilled water is used instead of salt water in the red onion experiment to observe osmosis, there would be no osmotic movement because distilled water does not contain any dissolved solutes. In contrast to salt water, where water moves from an area of low solute concentration to an area of high solute concentration, in distilled water there are no solutes to create a concentration gradient for water to move across the membrane.
